Haggard helped create the Bakersfield sound with his Fender Telecaster, stripped-down arrangements and lyrics that often reflect the hardscrabble and tragic sides of life. His long, storied and influential career began shortly after his release from San Quentin Prison in 1960 and ended with his death earlier this year. This 4-CD box set covers 30 of those years and includes 100 of his greatest songs. Tracks include "(My Friends Are Gonna Be) Strangers," "The Bottle Let Me Down," "Sing Me Back Home," "Mama Tried," "Okie from Muskogee," "If We Make It Through December" and many more. Simply a must-have for all fans of classic country music! Capitol Nashville.
